How manual is it? A person running a utility, or a person typing in numbers?

If its not too manual, perhaps it could be automated.
I have a somewhat related observation. My application Fuelpad has been in Fremantle extras since 2010-02-17 and the number of downloads (not the statistics figure) has increased at about 100 a day. Now I noticed that the number has increased to 6000. I could swear that it was about 600 yesterday since I was bragging to my wife about it. Well, a google search gives me a new blog entry in www.mobiledownloadblog.com. Still, I find it quite unbelievable. Can such a blog entry affect that much? The download statistics figure seems not to be in sync with the downloads number.
